Forged internals

ByPopularDemand · May 3rd, 2007, 06:45 PM

Are they only needed for going FI or would I need them at a certain n/a power level

TurboLX · May 3rd, 2007, 06:48 PM

you only need them when running high boost from a turbo, supercharger and sometimes nitrous

Depends. If you build the engine to a higher compression ratio then internals are part of that equation and you could gain horses from it.

it all depends on how you build it, theres different types that can and cant add hp

Basically if you replace your stock parts w/ identical forged internals - No HP gains

they "will" help

well if u get performance forged made for power...at least...if u can have a stock part forged no

If you replace your internals with stock specs (which isn't likely to happen) then your power increase will be negligable.

But since you have to bore/hone out cylinder walls while replacing pistons/rods, you might as well increase your stroke while you're increasing your bore. That'll yield some gain. Not massive amounts, but maybe 2-5 hp depending on how much you increase the stroke length and bore out the cylinder walls.
